Dies R Us Challenge - Graduation

Hello Friends
It's time for a new challenge over on the Dies R Us Challenge Blog.
Our theme this time around is:

GRADUATION / CONGRATULATIONS


I have created two card for you today ... very similar as you see, with the exception of one masculine and one feminine.

 Dies I have used are:

Frantic Stamper - Stack of Books
Frantic Stamper - Dies - Stack Of Books


 Impression Obsession - Boy Grad
 Impression Obsession - Dies - Boy Grad

Impression Obsession - Girl Grad
 Impression Obsession - Dies - Girl Grad

 Impression Obsession - Happy Graduation
Impression Obsession - Dies - Happy Graduation

 Gemini - Congratulations
 Gemini - Papercraft Dies - Congratulations

Tutti Designs - Cross Stitch Hexagons
 Tutti Designs - Dies - Cross Stitch Hexagons




 On both cards, the silhouettes have been popped up using dimensional tape
and the 'happy graduation' sentiments have been 'shadowed' by
die cutting the sentiment again from black card stock then gluing
them together just slightly off center.

The stack of books have been colored slightly different as well but you
could certainly just die cut as a silhouette also. 
 

 My inside sentiment is clean & simple ... all you'd need to add is your signature
(and a check!  lol).
 

 Don't forget to check out sister store in Canada . . .
Dies R Us now has a sister store with warehouses in USA & Canada called Didi Crafts 


It will ship to both the US and Canada. Didi Crafts will carry some of the same products as DRU, but most will be different. Now our Canadian friends don't have to worry about huge taxes or shipping fees. How great is that!?!


I hope you will come join in the fun at the Dies R Us Challenge Blog.  There's a new challenge theme offered on the 1st and 15th of each month and one lucky randomly drawn winner will receive a gift voucher prize to the Dies R Us Store.  For your convenience, all the important Dies R Us links are provided below. 

  Hope to see you there!!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
  
As always . . .
